“Rohit Sharma talked to me…”: Kuldeep Yadav on captain’s role in improving his batting cricket news

Indian spinner Kuldeep Yadav said captain Rohit Sharma helped him improve his batting skills during the five-match Test series against England at home from January to March this year. Kuldeep was speaking at a press event in Delhi ahead of his Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Delhi Capitals (DC)’s match against Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. In India’s 4-1 win over England at home, Kuldeep played a very important role, not only with the ball as expected, but surprisingly with the bat as well. Not only did he take 19 wickets in four matches, including five wickets, but he also scored 97 runs in six innings at an average of 19.40, with his best score of 30. Break the match for India. With a solid defence, he will hold his end steady and allow the other batsman to attack in search of a match-saving total or match-winning target.

Furthermore, during his team’s IPL match against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Eden Gardens on May 29, Kuldeep played a crucial inning of 35* runs in 26 balls with the help of five fours and a six, helping his team score 153. Reached a respectable score of /9. Although DC lost the game, Kuldeep top-scored for his side and added another feather to his growing reputation as a capable batsman.

Speaking at the event, Kuldeep said that Rohit does not talk to him much about his bowling as he is performing well in his role. However, Rohit was concerned about his batting and he helped him get better at it by talking about the nuances of discipline during the nets.

Kuldeep said, “Rohit bhai doesn’t talk to me much about bowling because I am doing only what he wants me to do with the ball.” “He was worried about my batting. He asked me to improve my batting. “I worked on it during the Test series against England.” [at home earlier this year] And he was impressed by my hard work. He used to stay with me at the nets and talk to me about the intricacies of batting. This helped me a lot and now I am enjoying my batting as much as my bowling,” Kuldeep said.

Talking about IPL, DC will face RR on Tuesday at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. Delhi (10 points) are in sixth place with five wins and six losses in the season. RR are in second place with eight wins and two losses, giving them 16 points.
